    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

Security problem with permission

Plesk Panel 9.5.2

Customer has Plesk servers with Plesk default permissions and settings in windows\temp folder and php.ini for php5 version. He checked the IUSR permission and found that based on psacln group and its permission on temp folder, all php sessions and all windows temp folder is accessible for the users and it could cause some problems such as session hijacking and so on. He wants to know what is the best solution to protect temp folder and subfolders? And how can he prevent accessing temp folder without making problem for Plesk?

SOLUTION:

You can change session save_path as described at http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.changes.php#configuration.changes.windows:

1. Create key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PHP\Per Directory Values\c\inetpub\vhosts\<domain>.
2. Create string value 'session.save_path' = 'C:\Inetpub\vhosts\<domain>\private'.

Now session files for <domain> will be stored in 'private' dir.
